Boosting Ecological Savings with a Box

Sally Kuchar, editor of Curbed SF, noticed these Boost Boxes at the Green Festival in San Francisco the other weekend. The company that makes them, Boost Home, put a lot of work into making dead-simple, unintimidating boxes to help people increase their energy, water, and money savings. Boxes include products, instructions, audit information, and other goodies. Check out a few:

Whole Home Energy Boost Box – $188 The Whole Home Energy Boost Box includes 14 "energy saving dynamos" such as CFLs, a programmable thermostat, a watt monitor, a motion activated light, and other information.

Whole Home Water Boost Box – $168 The Whole Home Water Boost Box includes 20 "water saving superstars" such as water-efficient showerheads, sink aerators, toilet tank bags, toilet flappers, and other information.
